It's been done to death with good outcomes. But for all out power the A6 is actually the best D-series head.

Now if you are doing it just to be SOHC, well the F22A is SOHC and outflows all but the K series. But you'll want to match it with a D or B series trans using a special adapter.

high compression is easy and decently cheap to do.

do your a6/z6 combo with zc pistons and boom 12 compression.

So you want VTEC even if it means less power potential?

what is that supposed to mean? VTEC can be acheived on a non vtec head...all vtec is bigger lobes so in a non vtec head you would techinically be in vtec all the time with a performance cam...
